    GridCars launches subscription service for EV owners with home-charging systems

    ICASA says Herotel must obtain radio frequency spectrum licences to offer Amazon Leo broadband services in South Africa

    Haval/GWM Cars

    I'm sorry to say it, but are SA asking the wrong things or being treated as dumb . Why would anything think total range (fuel+elec) is an important metric? The plug in range is important because if you can be full electric for your commute it's a big win. For 1000km "range" it could be 200km...
